What Would You Do If You Knew You Couldn't Fail?

It is good to rest on these lessons that let me off the hook for all the stories I have made up about how I am undeserving. I mean, it’s not like I go around constantly berating myself, but those niggling thoughts persist about how I “should” have done… fill in the blank. Each time […]

As we begin the second week in January of this New Year, I find myself noticing how challenging it is to totally embody new habits. I have been working on my Miracle Morning routines, I see how ingrained other habits are and how it will likely take a while to shift into incorporating these new […]

“Some of your greatest advances you have judged as failures, and some of your deepest retreats you have evaluated as success.” ~A Course in Miracles I woke up late with the feeling that settles in the moment you realize that already you (I) have messed up. You know, where you set this awesome intention and then […]

“You need but ask it of Him, and it will be given you,” says the epilogue to A Course in Miracles. It is graduation day – the last day of doing these daily lessons (for the second time!), although by now I am certain I will call on many of them for the rest of […]

The year is quickly coming to a close and with it these lesson reviews. I am grateful to have had these daily reviews, with reminders of what I was/am learning. Not surprisingly, today’s focus was reflected in two conversations I had yesterday – about how prayers are always answered but sometimes we (I) fail to […]

Today’s ACIM lesson, #359, is Lesson 359 says “God’s answer is some form of peace. All pain is healed; all misery replaced with joy. All prison doors are opened. And all sin is understood as merely a mistake.” It is the call to peace. It is the call to be healed. This blog post was written […]

Ask and you shall receive. On this Christmas Eve it seems fitting that this is today’s lesson and although this post was written last January, it is nonetheless relevant. Today’s ACIM lesson, #358, says, “No call to God can be unheard nor left unanswered. And of this I can be sure; His answer is the one […]

From last year’s writing, lesson 355 is There is no end to all the peace and joy, and all the miracles that I will give, when I accept God’s Word. Why not today? This post was written on the last day of the year (because at that point in time I was 10 days behind!). It is […]

“Judgment and Love are opposites.” That is how today’s ACIM lesson, #352, begins, with this proclamation that reminds us (me) that if I am judging, I am not loving for I have decided I know better than the Holy Spirit. I have clearly forgotten that “I do not know what anything is for.” Lesson 96 […]

Today’s ACIM lesson, #350, Miracles mirror God’s eternal Love. To offer them is to remember Him, and through His memory to save the world, is yet another call for forgiveness. It begins, “What we forgive becomes a part of us, as we perceive ourselves.” It is yet another step in letting go of the illusion […]
